How to Recognize False Breakouts

- In today's video David Jones will be talking about one of the worst trading scenarios and that is the False Breakout.
Textbooks say that if a trend line breaks, then that's it - another direction is certain. Well, that's not exactly true. Patience is key.
Making the decisions in the right time at the right price makes all the difference. This video will help you make that judgment with more knowledge about the different possible scenarios.

I love this guys teaching methods, he's very calm and precise
Videos like these are truly invaluable to struggling but driven people. Thank you mate.
Right on bro
Exactly
Trading 212 is one the best channels for learning to trade in the stock market. The honesty and sincerity of the presenters are like a fresh breath of air compared to so many channels who just boast of their achievements and make it look easy or make it look so hard that you are forced to buy something they are selling. Keep up the good work and hoping for an interactive webinar soon. :)
Delighted to have found you. Your explanations are concise and very helpful!
Hi, Claudia. Great to see you appreciate the tutorials. Make sure to subscribe to the channel and always be up to date with the latest videos - new content every week.
Exactly i met with this one time. Thank for clearing
this is the only channel i have found to be really detailing and educational
thank you for the good tutorial
I know I didn't lose a lot of money but the false breakout got me. Didn't wait for the evening star confirmation and convinced myself the trade would go in my favor. My lot size was only a 0.05.
I like the calm attitude of David, he makes it look easy
I've watched only 2 videos of you sir, and I'm already a fan 👍. Easy to understand and nice way of explaining.
Wow! UA-cam has just brought me back your channel, many months after I added your channel to my list of sources to learn from (and your channel is the first in that list) :) And the timing is good as I have learned much since then.
Welcome back 🙌 It's nice to hear you're enjoying our content.
Trading 212: David: I sincerely appreciate your effort in regard to this video, especially where you apply the ultimate in common sense to trading as it should always be.
At the video time of 14:10 minutes, even you stress that this doesn't work all of the time (to be fair, 50/50 percent). This may sound trite, but this is the most salient sentence of all trading training videos: the reason we apply stops and profit targets -- for, *we will always know that these will work -- ALL of the time.*
Love you to hear more. You are the first person I found that speak teachnicaly about binary trading
Mate. You’re a legend. Thank you
Thank you!! It's good stuff people like yall do. Helping a lot of traders (including me) with this
I love the way you teach
Summary: The answer to "How to recognize false breakouts" is "You wait a bit". The title should really be, "How to profit from false breakouts". Much better clickbait wording and the answer is actually in the video. The answer: "If the support gets broken, you wait a bit to verify. When it comes back to the resistance (previous support), you enter a position with a stop-loss just below the resistance." There you go. Saved you a bit of time. Now learn something much more useful like RSI.
Indicators are useless (except for MA)
@@niggabitch7045 No one is going to take advice with that name
Thanks for the Summary. (However, Rsi is a loser)
Nothings a loser with a proper exit strategy, money management and position sizing. You can be profitable by flipping a coin to decide your trades if you wanted
in unidirectional trending market and volatility index is low, RSI fails pretty badly.
Great videos-Ive learned more in a week watching your vids than I have in 6 mos of other vids. Thanks!
Such a quality content. Very self explanatory
Very informative and helpful - even 2 years later. Thankyou!
Trading breakouts
1.) See if price breaks support or resistance line.
2.) Wait for next candle confirmation to enter the breakout.
3.) Stop loss place just below or above the support or resistance line.
Trading false breakouts
1.) After price breaks support or resistance line wait for next candle confirmation to enter the price reversal.
2.) Stop loss place just below or above the support or resistance line.
i saw your youtube video tutorials on trading breakouts and false breakouts, these are the rules i understood from your videos on breakouts and false breakout.
Would it be better to set a buy stop position just above the breakout candle during a breakout on a resistance line at the same time set a sell stop position just below the resistance line candle, from this if a false breakout occur by sell stop position would be triggered and if a breakout took place in this scenario my buy stop position will be triggered and the trade would still go in my favour whether it continues to go up into a breakout or goes back down into a false breakout.
Thank you so much. Very easy to understand
At around the 8 minute mark play close attention to the inside price bar on gold that retests the 1235 area. That's what ignited the reversal to the upside. Inside and outside price bars as well as engulfing patterns showing up when testing major levels creates an approximate 80% probability trade. The patience required to watch an asset until this pattern shows up is what kills traders accounts.
thanks for sharing your great informations.. waiting for more videos
I'm learning a lot from these videos I'm a beginner
This channel has taught me so much in just one day. Thanks!
I always been tricked with false breakout and losing money, but this video is really helpful. I will never been trick again...
Never quote Justin Bieber

Very clear and simple. Thank you!
Still incredibly useful 4 years down the line!
Excellent learnt more off you than anyone else
Great video. Most times the false breakout is what actually happens. Unless the breakout is confirmed with major momentum and on a fractal price zone.
The most informative and educational channel!! Learning a lot from this. Thank you very much! :)
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, I been Trading since 2008 and still find all your videos extremely helpful and reminders of lot of small things that I have forgotten, I really appreciate all of your videos, god bless and stay green

great video, a clear and comprehensive picture of false break.
You're good man for sharing the knowledge. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You explained this very well.
Great video. I have seen tons of examples of false breakouts, this knowledge really helps.
Ok, I guess I will definitely end up being a very good trader because I am just 2 weeks in to trading and have already figured this out. This is my first time seeing this video. This has given me great confidence as i have already made successful trades doing exactly this.
I am learning lots just by watching your videos. Do you trade for people?
very good technical video. thanks!
Thank you sir. Hats off to you and stay blessed.

Wouldn't expect that to break out.
Would expect reversal.
Classic pattern.
your videos help out alot thank you very much.
Yes . Taking sell stops and then coming back higher to take their stops happens 90 percent of the time . Please guys check 20 pips consolidation zone in eur usd or gbp usd . 1_Draw ur zone of the 20 pips second : go to 15 minutes time frame and see how many false breakouts that happened before actually breaking out with 60 pips of your 20 pips zone up the higher level and lower of your bottom level . All of those false breakouts are very profitable trades
thank you.....
remember to set stop loss folks. protect your money so you can trade for a long time......

thank you! very clear explanation and easy to understand presentation
You are helping us so much.. thank you
Very helpful!
This is all well and good but the key to these situations is position sizing and startegy implementation. These are great spots to use spreads so you dont get chopped to pieces trying to use a stop. Either use a verticle spread in the direction you choose and you put time on your side so you have exposure with defined risk. Or slap on a straddle and simply take off the profitable side when whichever move happens is exhusted and let the other side ride for future consolidation or you can turn the losing side into a credit spread while you wait. Using stops in these situations is suicide.
What are your thoughts on bitcoins and alt coins ?
I always watch all your videos. I feel like I can't learn this skill. In the meantime I have to continue to watch these videos.

Great video, trading come with a lot of benefits And I have just bought my second house through it. As a beginner I was scared of loosing my savings but I’m glad I took the bold step that is now favoring me.
Excellent advice on stop loss placement. Thanks for the video!
Excellent video. Very well put together. I have one thing to add though.
According to the false breakout example with the USD/JPY, the false breakout can also be recognize by the smaller and smaller size of the green candles. This indicates that the buyer momentum is dropping. Wysetrade made a brilliant video on this exact pattern explaining it in greater detail.
Otherwise still a great video!
Forgive me if I sound ignorant... But why wouldn't you just pull up a volume chart and then you can see if moment is really dropping.
Great video!
I have literaly decided to take EVERY double bottom formation as it has a relatively high reward system even if the lowest return is 5 pips.
but do you trade at the moment of the breakout, or do you wait the pullback first to trade? because you can be buying in a resistance level and selling in a support level..
David, I absolutely adore your videos and the manner in which you bring the information. I had a question about your small monitor on the right, do you have it set up as a touchscreen/serving any non-standard purpose?
great video's, they brought me from crypto noob to trading nicely in under a month.
great video learned soo much
thanks gave me an idea for breakout trading both genuine n fake
great video, very insightful thank you!
this is a great tutorial David. Thanks a lot. I have a small question. I am a complete novice in forex trading. I have 2 questions/arguments regarding the stop loss order. Please correct me if I am wrong:
- In order to avoid being caught on the wrong side of the trade, I can set a wide stop loss even if it leads to poor risk reward ratio; and adjust the stop loss (hence the risk reward ratio) by moving the stop loss to break even and or beyond as trade moves in my favor. I think in order for this to work I should have a wide timeframe. At least a day. Is this the right way please?
- Another way that I would use is to put a wide stop loss, monitor the trade, and cancel the trade if it is moving against me (before the stop loss is triggered). Again I find this way to be possible with longer timeframes. Is this right David? Again thanks a lot for the videos.

Hey there, thank you for the kind words! Much appreciated.
thank you for this video !
thanks for really helpful info.
with regards from Vienna
Hey there, first time viewer here. I really appreciate the content and advice. One thing you haven't mentioned, and maybe that's because you're looking at hour candles and days or weekly candles, but volume. You haven't mentioned anything about the volume with trades during these breakouts or false breakouts. I wanted to hear your opinion on volume with breakout predictions and why you didn't bother mentioning this. Happy green days!
Really thanks for this video..
the term your missing is "overthrow"..... when the price moves slightly past a support or resist.
can you please make videos on top-down analysis and trading using order blocks
Thanks for reaching out, Mary. Your request is appreciated.
thank you so much for the reply!! your teachings are so concise
Well presented David. Thank you. Would you say a retest of a breakout level increases chances of a trend continuation?
Great video
Dear Mr Jones
I'm from Iran really your videos are very help full and really I enjoy watching your videos will you please talk about the parabolic dots also?
@Trading 212 you talked briefly about stop losses. What's your thought on Market Makers purposely triggering stop losses so they can buy a retailer's position and then the price continues higher. I know traders that don't use stop losses because they don't want Market Makers to be able to see them.
